-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 444104 2006-06-08 04:09 ld

You would think that would allow me to execute it as a normal user. The only thing I shouldn't be able to do as non-root, non-root-group member is write it, but...

I was going to copy and paste the output to prove that it didn't do it, but when I tested it this time, it did work. I swear that the error said it couldn't find /usr/bin/ld. I just did ls, saw it there, with the root ownership, and then ran sudo fpc sockser.pas, and the error went away.

I figured out that the permissions on /usr/bin/ld is set to root, and
I'm logged in as a different user.  When I sudo fp to start Free Pascal,
I am able to compile without a problem.

What are the permissions exactly ? You should be able to execute ld as
normal user at least.
